John Martyn- Sunshine's Better (Talvin Singh Remix)

DO ENJOY THIS SOOTHING MELODY! :)


Sunshine's Better
 
If I call you sugar, if you call me honey
Does this mean you've got a hand in my fate
If you take my money, if I take your liberty
Does it mean it's all down to love and hate
If you open doors for me, I'll have the manners to respond
I'll treat you like mine
Ah babe, ah baby.

Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better when you make it shine
The sun shines better
Sunshine's better on the other side
The other side of the hill
The sun shines better.

If I call you lover and if you call me dad
Does it mean that we're in love
If you give me all your hate
Open up the garden gate
Does that mean we're in love.

Tell me sugar, call me honey
Come on darling, I'll just take all my money
We can run away naked with the flames of desire
Running through water like birds of a feather
Like birds of a feather.

I tell you, sunshine's better on the other side
The other side of the stream
Let's run in tonight, let's run in tonight
The sunshine's better on the other side of the flames
Come on darling, let's jump in tonight
Let's jump in tonight.

Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better every time you make that smile of yours reappear
You chortle, chuckle, giggle, mumble and
Swing like a bitch
'Til the day is done, that's what you do
You can giggle and laugh, make yourself happy
'Til the day is done, remember.

Sunshine's better on the other side, other side of the hill
We're going to get there, come on, come on
Skinny dip, skinny dip, skinny dip, skinny dip
Skinny dipping around the scene
Way down by the river
Sunshine's better on the other side.

They tell me that the sunshine's better on the other side
Better than this side, you know
The sunshine's better over there, better over there, better over there.

Sunshine's better
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better
Sunshine's better on the other side, the other side of the hill
Lord, you know where the grass is green
Oh lord, greener than you've ever seen.

Sunshine's better on the other side
On the other side
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better, don't you dare to go and hide from me now.

If I call you sugar, would you dare to call me honey?
If I tell you that I love you, would you take all my money
We could run naked, naked through the fire
Through the water, through the ice, through the sun
Through the jungle, through the desert sands
On the road, down and around the swings, roundabouts.

Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better than you've ever seen before in your life
I'm telling you how I know
I've been there
I've been there and gone
Been there, been there and gone
Been there.

My Friend, My Delight, My Darling Beloved




You hold on so tight
Too fearful to let go
But if only you would remember
I am there, wherever you go

Fear not my love
My friend, my delight
Just open your heart
And your fears will take flight

I will never leave you
To fight on your own
Just remember this my beloved
You are NEVER alone.



Much love ♥

The Tears are Falling- Ann Taylor

My heart feels such pain,
Tell me how to stop my tears.
What can I do to ease the pain?

Why, has life always been so hard,
Showering me with such heavy burdens.

The tears keep falling
As I lay down to sleep.
My eyes wide open,
Flashes of my past,
Of things I lost in my life.

As the tears fall, memories
Floating around in my mind,
Going back in time.
Remembering all the good times
When I had it all.

The tears are falling like a summer rain,
Wishing i could turn back time.
Never thinking one day,there would
Be no you here besides me.

With tears falling down my face,
Knowing there is nothing left

But my memories of time past,
When you were there besides me,
Keeping me safe.
Making all the problems seem small
As you are standing so tall.

No tears of sorrow,
Only love, hope and happiness,
Never thinking of tommorow.

Now as my tears are falling
There is no one here to wipe them away.
Just my hands of loneliness
praying, what to do.

I stare at nothing, trying to decide
Where do I go from here,
Which way do I turn?

The tears are falling, remembering
All the things I took for granted,
Now that all is lost and gone

As i wipe the tears falling down my face,
I look up to the sky and pray.
"Please God, help to show me the way.
Lead me down the right path,
Give me the strength to carry on.

It's so lonely here by myself
With so many things to do.
I need you to give me the faith
To see me through."

The tears have stopped falling.
With God's help I'll figure out
What I need to do.
It may not be the best,
But it will be the best that I can do,
Living my life by myself, without you.

Life as a Twig


I took a pretty little walk, to do some gardening you know? The grass was green and fresh, I could smell the rain as it hit the scorching black pitch. I got high.

The scenery made me want to cry. Surrounded in greenery, huge lucious trees, a border of bamboo. I feel like...like I could describe anything! No lacking in words, the colours and much rare earth to drown in. The scent so real, so vivid, it's lustre undeniable, glossy shade of green!

I pick the longest twig I could find, sit here ready to devour it. I devour it's life, it's breath, it's colour, it's scent, it's beauty, it's uniqueness.

So much beauty, so much life in a lifeless twig.

I smell it. Smell it's nearness, it's aloneness, it's perfection. It reminds me of fresh salad. Cold, edible, fragile, wilting.

It reminds me of my solitude, my dependability on the living. It brings me face to face with death. Jaws snapping at my flesh, my face...absolute inevitable destruction and everlasting pain.

It reminds me of life. It all begins with the root, soft, wet, fresh, vulnerable. Through the middle, it turns to a delicious green....then a depressing brown..

It's fatness thins out and I encounter a break in the once fertile twig. Shall I break it here? End it's life shortly, swiftly..end all suffering and pain?

Live or DIE! Kill or BE KILLED! Do it or SUFFER! ....It seems these are our choices whether we like it or not.

We lengthen, thin out, wither and thankfull, finally we die....It seems this is life...

...and the precious sweet smelling twig that I hold in my hand!

No where to go for Carnival

I've often wondered at my life..saying "my life sux" doesn't cut it anymore. I'm sitting here and waiting..watching ..thinking it's going to get better someday!..yea..someday!

I wonder if the average 25 year old feels this way.. as though..life is something you feel unprepared for..it's hazy and you seem to be going nowhere fast. You find yourself wishing you were somewhere else..you get irritated at where your at in life and can't wait to get somewhere...but have no idea where!

Well, that's me right now, I wonder if 15 months from now..i'll be where I want to be.. I don't think I will be content...
My art teacher, Mr.Morris once told me the painting I did showed that I feel jailed in..even though I knew it was for my benefit. Like a bird in a guilded cage... It's a lovely looking jail..but a jail nontheless..and is it really for my own benefit?

So I, like some people don't enjoy the crush and bother of Trini Carnival..sue me! But would you pass up the opportunity to go to Tobago for a week..all expenses paid! ...I wouldn't..but I did :(

Now I'm stuck it seems ..at home on Saturday, at home on Sunday, at home on Monday , at home on Tuesday..no wonder I'm blogging!>>shoot me somebody!!!

Welcome to My Blog!

Make yourself a nice cup of tea..coffee..whatever..get comfy, sit back relax and enjoy! Feel free to leave your comments..and DO speak your mind ;)
